just making a point, Horn is no more or less Mary Sue than Kyle is. If you don't believe that just look at some of the shit Kyle has pulled in old EU.
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Kyle_Katarn
>>44664928
How is Horn a Mary Sue?
I'm re-reading XWing again (for the hundredth time probably), and even from book 1, Stackpole was making it clear that Corran was Force Sensitive
>>44664919
Neither character is canon anymore so it doesn't matter anyway, your not getting anything else with them in it.
>>44664928
>the main character of a video game series is a Mary Sue
I don't understand this. YES, he's done like super duper huge things, but that's because he exists to give the player a power fantasy.
He's SUPPOSED to be over the top!
>>44664928
Well to be fair, EU is a breeding ground for Sues.
My guess is that people just like awesome stories about awesome people, qualities be damned.
>>44664936
To be fair, while Kyle had the whole total success in the Valley of the Jedi thing against living and dead force sensitive enemies, when Corran tried to take even one old Sith spirit he got wrecked.
So i guess give Corran props for being a bit less Sue.
...though it was against Kun....
What makes a character a sue?
I like playing around with lightsaber designs and would eventually like to make a character to go with them.
>>44664971
Having a giant lightsaber on your walker.
>>44664986
Negative, that's a PC idea.
Listen /swg/ I've been thinking about this all day and I can't find a satisfying answer, how can I make a time when the Republic has no wars interesting? what crisis can happen on a galactic scale that would be historical and interesting without straight out Separatists/Mandalorion/Sith/what ever else war on the Republic? is it possible? did I just choose a bad era and should rethink my entire campaign?

You could fuck around in Hutt Space and the Outer Rim in general. Nar Shaddaa is a planet made entirely of wretched hives of scum and villainy.
>>44664971
...really it cones down to a few things.
Overpowered
Unrealistic qualities (being absolutist flawless for example)
Really having no flaws whatsoever.
For example, drawing from another Disney property, Tony Stark would be Sue except for one thing, he is incredibly flawed character. His tech might be without equal but his core character is flawed in a very real world fashion. We as the readers understand his flaws and thought process so that keeps him from Sue...mostly.
Personaly i would rate Corran a bit less on the Sue scale than Kyle. If for no other fact Corran gets more development and we see pretty much his whole journey from CorSec, to Rouge Squad, Then to Jedi. and he never really leaves any of those stages behind either, they all echo on into the character as he developed.
Kyle started as a game character and never really got that kind of development.
>>44665016
Focus on exploration. Chart the unknown worlds, go full pulp adventures, read the Lando Trilogy and the Han Solo Corporate Sector books, seek out new societies, ancient ruins, bizarre horrors.
>>44665016

Would being good in multiple styles of lightsaber combat be too unrealistic?
I'm in the process of making up a dude right now and a couple different styles sound really good for the character.
>>44665156
Define 'good'
Most trained lightsaber users are at least competent in multiple styles, but you can only really focus on one if you want to be a master
>>44665043
>>44665047
I hear you and those are good ideas, I just don't know what I want from my campaign, on the one hand I want the Sith to be ultimate BBEG and I want the campaign to feel epic and large in scale eventually, on the other hand I want to start it small and build it up to major future events, I want my players to be neutral and have the freedom to choose all kinds of paths and not tell them "you're Jedi better act like it" but I don't have anything specific enough in mind,I just don't know how to translate this general guidelines to practical details.. I'm just a shitty GM and should kill myself

The Rakghoul Plague starts springing up again, passing through quarantines unprepared for a sudden and violent viral outbreak. Panic spreads, forcing planetary governors to close ports and turn orbital defenses on ships seeking refuge. Supplies run low for planets relying on trade or off-world agriculture, riots break out. To quell political unrest, the same governors ignore calls from the Senate to step down from office and completely block holonet access, robbing the citizens of any opportunity to call for help beyond rudimentary long-range signals. It is a time of strife and famine, internal struggles both new and old coming to the fore, and heroes of the Republic are needed.
>>44665156
>too unrealistic
Not really. It makes sense since the classical saber forms were often specialized or, in Niman's case, too thinly spread out. Obi-Wan made use of Soresu and Ataru, while Vader eventually learned all of the forms. Some styles even naturally complement each other (Soresu and Makashi, Shien and Djem So, etc.). The Kyle Katarn saga also let you switch up NJO combat styles on the fly, IIRC.
Just don't expect to actually go beyond mere proficiency without a shitton of training.

>>44665183
And after all the hundreds upon hundreds of intertwining schemes, cataclysms, civil wars, and insurgencies are put to rest, the question remains... Was this plague a random event? Or was it engineered to happen when and where it did?
>>44665156
>Would being good in multiple styles of lightsaber combat be too unrealistic?
Literally a necessity for Jedi Battlemasters in the Jedi Order. A Battlemaster must master (or at least be extremely proficient in) every form so that they can train and instruct other students.
Cin Drallig and Kyle Katarn were both battlemasters.
>>44665169
Has practical knowledge of two and really specializes in a third?
The three I've been looking at all sound like they rely on the same sort of concept-moves and I can't just pick out one that sounds the best.
So I'm thinking that they know all three, having dabbled in them before finding their preferred style.
Favorite race to never get screentime, go.
I start by nominating the Krevaaki. It helps that I always had a hardon for jedi artisans and, well, Vodo-Siosk Baas and all that. Think the design was interesting though, sufficiently alien while still looking alright.
>>44665265
Yeah, that would be fine. Like everyone else is saying, most Jedi know a few tricks from each Form, just to round themselves out. Plus going for styles that use similar moves adds to the "trying to figure out their style" aspect of the story

though seeing what JJ did to orion slave girls, their time has passed the modern big screen is no place for them
>>44665230
Forgot to drop my trip.
>>44665265
Most lightsaber-wielders incorporate multiple styles into their fighting style.
They learn the forms in order, so even if they don't specialize in some of them, they all know the basics of Shii-Cho, Makashi, Soresu, etc. Even if someone focuses on Djem So, they would still know how to use Shien, even if they don't specialize in it.
Of course, this is assuming they are trained in a formal setting. A Jedi with no academy has to get by with knowledge of others, holocrons and winging it.
>>44665196
>>44665183
>>44665202
This is good you guys are actually giving me hope, what if the plague is the outcome of a fallen Jedi outcast being manipulated to use the Murr Talisman by a BBEG Sith?
>>44665308
Maybe. But you should think bigger. You don't start a galactic plague just to wipe out life. There's a goal. Perhaps the chaos was merely a means to an end, a distraction for said Sith to move freely, the massive loss of life hiding their movement from the Jedi. Like a massive smokescreen. Although that beggars the question of what they were hoping to achieve. Perhaps locate some ancient device or weapon or holocron, something they didn't trust to a mind-enslaved puppet. You don't want to make the loss of life the ends in and of itself, that's impossible for your heroes to prevent and would make the Sith's failure after they've 'succeeded' somewhat less impactful. Better that this is a prelude of things to come.
>>44665040
Can't corner the Ganner.
>>44665307
Ah I see then my dude wouldn't be that much of a sue, because I have no set time period for this character to be from yet.
Any suggestions?
>>44665397
I wrote a story taking place in a Jedi Academy in the Old Republic setting, and I read pages on Wookieepedia for everything I needed to know. Lightsaber combat, the styles, the advancement from a Padawan to a Knight to a Master, the three pillars of the Jedi, the Jedi Code, etc.
All this stuff can be found by just investing some time on the Wook. They know their stuff, trust me.
>>44665397
>>44665435
Also, this is a good book. It can tell you most of everything you'd like to know.
>>44665435
...or the Jedi Path book if you have access to it. It's all in there too. Actually all of those are at least entertaining reads so read them if you get the chance.
>>44665296

Star Wars Raiden sounds too expensive to be playable. Even baseline cybernetics cost thousands of credits, more then a starting character gets by a mile

>Selkath in the clone wars
I thought they were extinct? I mean, nobody uses the made up shit from KOTOR anymore, preferring the much higher grade of canon bacta.
No, seriously, why the fuck did they feel the need to make up a healing substance that does the exact same shit as another healing substance already in canon?
>>44665471
>>44665495
Yeah the Raiden would definetly have to be built up. Possibly he'll start out with the cybernetic replacement limbs that give no real benifits and gets his new magic power limbs as he goes.
And I just love playing characters who are massive cowards. Either in an overly cautious way or like this where hes kind of a shit.
>>44665525
They never went extinct. They withdrew from the galaxy after the events of KotOR, they failed to become a part of the Republic so they just fucked off.
Kolto is basically not as effective as bacta, so it was a low-cost alternative. They never really had the prominence they used to have.
>>44665583
Still, Kolto is better than nothing at all, right?
>>44665471
don't flip me off, BB8, you little shit
>>44665624
Yeah, it's better than nothing. Better than natural healing, but not nearly as effective as bacta.
>>44665624
Kolto is great if you have an allergy to Bacta
>>44665640
Hey don't you talk shit about my droidfu, ill fuckin fight you nigger
>>44665640
pls no bully bb8
>>44665642
You'd think it'd still see use for less serious injuries so they could save the Bacta for the big stuff.
Maybe they got a bunch more prominence during the Bacta War with the supply of bacta getting cut off as a stopgap.
>>44665446 >>44665466
I will definitely look into those.

>>44666052
I once had a small arc in a campaign I ran a long time ago. A group of Mandalorian Mercenaries had agreed to help the Nagai against the Tof, and in so doing, a number of Nagai had decided to embrace the Mando culture. The leader of the mercs thought the Nagai were the most congenial and bro races of anyone he'd ever met.
Sadly, campaign never got that far, which was too bad - I was really looking forward to exploring all that
>>44665358
Ok what if it's not rakghoul, what if it's a synthetic virus, the product of Sith Alchemy, Sorcery and wicked technology.
Code named "Black Plague", a virus that has similar effects to the rakghoul disease by making weak minded individuals turn into mindless dark side zombies, and causes havoc throughout the whole galaxy.
meanwhile the Sith so happened to be the administrator of an, until now, little known medicinal research company that now offers the "cure" and because it's such a gigantic cataclysm he pretty much offers it for free, the BBEG Sith becomes renowned aa the saviour of the galaxy and a Saint, and uses his new found popularity to enter the Senate and start working corruption from the inside.
What do you guys say passable?
>>44665265
Frankly, for something like lightsaber combat you'll have a set of basic foundations. Distance, timing, biomechanics. These come not from any style, but from the plain physical facts of the weapon and the user.
A techniques is what you get when you take a solid understanding for how all of that works, and apply it to a specific situation.
Now a style will mostly just be a few specific techniques taught or recommended, some mroe or less personal ways to do things, and so on. But all valid styles will be based on the same foundations, to the point where proper mastery (instinctually working straight from the foundation principles) it's basically all the same.
>>44666412
The heroes would probably need some way to take down the bad guy without the Jedi or Senate finding out his true identity. Unless he's secretly just another false identity for Palps, anyway. Otherwise, it brings up questions like why the Jedi were stupid enough to let two different Sith Lords get into the Senate under their noses.

Maybe Bacta was not used in KoTOR because it's discovered or developed sometime around Yavin era? What were Bacta wars about and when they happened? Never read those, just seen them referred.
Anybody feel like having some fun and helping me out at the same time?
I have a small fighter squadron (6 ships) in my AoR Rebel Fleet\CR90 Campaign. While I have the leader taken care of as an NPC, i need to come up with a bunch of other fighter jockeys to make up this squadron.
Fighter Squadron consists of...
>Heavy-95, Flight Leaders ship
>Preybird
>Y-Wing A4
>Y-Wing S3
>Cloakshape
>ARC-170
So, if anyone would like, come up with some names, backgrounds, and personalities for the rest of these pilots.
Also, if you come up with something, feel free to change the ship they fly - im open to suggestions

>>44667788

>>44667708
Nah, bacta was discovered prior to the events of KotOR (Wook places its discovery at 4100 BBY, KotoR is 3950s, 3980s? something like that). Not sure why it didn't really spread until later.
The Bacta War (there was only one) was depicted in one of the X-Wing books, which bears the same name. Basically, the Imperial Remnant creates a virus that targeted all non-humans and could only be healed by bacta, so Ysanne Isard took over the only planet where bacta is produced. Rogue Squadron stopped her, but not before a bunch of bad stuff happened in the interim.
>>44667778

Cloakshape pilot is a Zygerrian "token evil teammate" descended from a once-powerful slaver family that the Empire brought down right after the Clone Wars. She wants to avenge that by enslaving as many Imperials as she can, and must be dissuaded from it by the rest of the rebel squadron. Or encouraged, whatever works. Otherwise a tsundere bitch who flies a defensive role and looks out for her few rebel friends – not that she'll ever tell them that.
How does Chewbacca meet Han?
Also what's the lifespan of a Wookie if he was alive in RotS and does look any older by TFA

Give them all callsigns, but not cool ones, like real nicknames aviators get. Use http://www.f-16.net/callsigns.html as a reference.

Gonna have to be careful with the engine intakes on top of the cockpit and teh top edge of the exhausts - bubbles love to hide in spots like that.
To the argument in the last thread;
>Alderaan
>NO! Alderaan is peaceful, we have no weapons!

...Forgetting that Tarkin mentions that Alderaan was in fact trying to put up a fight ("despite her claims, we detected resistance.."), and that Leia had literally been lying continuously to protect herself from moment one on the Taintive IV. At that point claiming they were pacifists without weapons basically confirmed that the had a fucking shipyard in full swing as far as any reasonable observer would be concerned.
>>44668336
IIRC, Han was an Imperial cadet and met Chewie when he was being taken as a slave by the Empire. Han freed him because he's merciful rebel scum, and the two pretty much did exactly what Finn and Poe would later do in TFA.
Wookies live for a while. Not as long as Yoda's species or your average Hutt, but at least a few centuries. He was in the equivalent of his mid-twenties in ROTS, and is in his late thirties age-wise in TFA.

For "The Princess, the Scoundrel, and the Farmboy," the new retelling of ANH, Alexandra Bracken was told that she could use almost any old source to draw material from BUT she wasn't allowed to use Han's past as an Imperial pilot.
Likely that part is out.

This master managed to have bubbling on the engines and a complete lack of resin flow to the cannons using a 3 part mould, I think that the focus will be on a proper powder dusting and a quick, clean pour over mould layout. The main issue is being able to demould the resin in one piece.
Also, I need to make the top intake this time, since last time the top intake was actually just clever mould line placement, this one needs actual construction.
Do you see any other major issues with the layout though? I am using pinkysil silicon for the mould, so it is flexible enough to "peel" off the top layer and then the bottom should slide out, I don't think I have any acute angles on the wrong side of the line but you can't be too careful.

Sanyassan Marauder who used to be a pirate fighter, and joined the rebellion because he fully expects them to replace the Empire as a new evil empire and wants to be a part of the "next big thing". Sees the rebels as a fad and can't wait to start making some actual oppressive anarchy. Gets buttmad when they do rescue missions and help civilians, and patiently awaits when the rebellion becomes villains. Still a cool guy for his squadron to hang out with if you get him high on enough spice. Tends to break his ship and bash the controls all the time.
Name him Chunk and stick him in one of the Y-Wings.
>>44668638
Probably the single-seater then. He'd likely get into fights with anyone he was paired with
I have this idea for an edge of the empire campaign. Basically the pcs are the employees/good friends of a notorious criminal/scoundrel who hass recently bit the dust. The criminal was pretty successful but also owed alot of money to alot of people so the pcs didnt see any of that dosh when he died. He did however forsee his death and asked a friend, a hutt, to help the pcs out when they died. The hutt offers to loan them the credits to purchase their own starship to start their own smuggling or criminal operation in exchange for some favors.
I figure this way its easy to explain how the pcs know eachother because theyve worked closely or have worked with this mutual friend. Also some goals for the players could be reonnecting with their dead employers contacts for new jobs, or hunting down the bastards who claimed the debt money when he died. Or maybe he still owed more so now bounty hunters or other crime lords are after them to work off the debt.
Anyways does this sound good or lame?

I am trying to remember the name of a Star Wars novel I read.
Its after RotJ and dozens of starships are massed over a world because of something involving Bothans. Leia is there to try and stop them all killing each other. And it ends with the factions uniting to fight three Star Destroyers that were cloaked in the system.
There's a point where we should have stopped. We've gone past that point so fast we've entered hyperspace

Squad leader is an experienced PDF pilot used to flying 95s. His homeworld was neutral during the Clone Wars - which didn't do them any favors when the Empire came around.
They call him "cropduster" because he's good at flying nape of the earth, and because he sounds like a agriworld hick. He loves the Z-95 frame so much he flies the Heavy rather than a newer X-Wing.
>>44668713
The meme train just keeps on going doesn't it.
>>44668763
I've already got the Squad Leader taken care of, but I'm going to adapt that character to one of the others - probably replace the Preybird with a Z-95. Maybe even a Mk1

Yorga "Princess" Organa. Extremely distant relative, ran for it as the ISB teams started arresting the other Alderaanians. Like, had five minutes to pack - he knocked out the agent that expected him to come peacefully and never looked back. Stole a civvie ship to get to the Rebels, feels absolutely terrible about it, and is trying to find/compensate the owner as a side project. Despite family name, grew up as a bartender in a lower-class slum and punching people who made fun of him for it. Solid Brawling skills, good Streetwise and Carouse (or your equivalents), mediocre pilot skills but good reflexes and a stubborn motherfucker.

Thanks, going to have to track that down.
Wasn't there a Thrawn trilogy as well?
>>44667710
What happens when an old clone, a dug, and a bothan walk into a bar? You get an ARC-170 crew.
The clone, the pilot, has rebel sympathies but is in it for the adrenaline and searching for one last moment of glory before he dies-more than once has he been reprimanded for trying to fly the ARC like an R-22 Spearhead.
The Bothan, forward gunner/flight engineer, is a genuinely nice guy and almost annoyingly toes the Rebel line-if you talk to him about business, he sounds like the Alliance equivalent of a COMPNOR officer. If it'll help the mission, he'll push his pilot to fly even crazier.
The dug just wanted to lie low in a large organization that watches after its own and had mechanics and gunnery as skills. He's pretty sure he was paired with the other two as a joke.
>>44668638
Honestly, I'd peg him for the Preybird - it's an established pirate fighter.
For this dude >>44668831 forgot the fighter. Either the 2-seater Y, or some kind of older intel/recce/AWACS bird like a HWK-290, with a jamming system retrofitted. He's the pilot, but he should have some kind of backseater running the 'trons. Flies picket duty and jams FTL comms when they raid.
>>44668892
Yes. The Hand of Thrawn Duology is a followup that takes place a few years after the Thrawn Trilogy.
>>44668828
>Mk1
That's right.
>>44664837
>>44665042
If you don't mind it, spending most of your credits on Second Skin armor can be pretty good, since its main thing is that it works underneath other clothes that can give you boosts to social checks. That way you're always in decent armor. If you're not an actual diplomat though, normal armored clothing would work fine. Other than that, it's hard to suggest anything without more specifics. But check out Desperate Allies, it's got the Second Skin Armor, the social clothes, and a lot of other solid stuff.
>>44668860
Oh, if the ARC is a twofer, then refitting it as the EWAR bird actually makes a lot of sense. You want to go with that? Although I still think it's funnier to have a stock ARC and then a refitted Y.
>>44668892
Yes. The first is called Heir To The Empire, followed by Dark Force Rising and The Last Command

As long as it ain't Revell Snap-fit.
>>44668953
I think you're thinking of Pazaak, from KoTOR. Sabacc plays between -23 or 23 (highest wins, getting exactly -23 or 23 is a Pure Sabacc which beats highest, getting only a "0" "2" and "3" in your hand is an Idiot's Array which beats a Pure Sabacc) but instead of playing cards from a reserve, the cards get randomized and you can discard/save cards in your hand.

All thats left is the S3, assuming we put Yorga in it - she needs a gunner
>>44669040
Cha Vonog, a tusken raider, callsign Bandit, who was taken by corelian entrepreneurs to be illegally studied upon. During an imperial raid, he was set free, but was less then pleased about being stuck on a planet not knowing anyone. Eventually he ran into a smuggler at a bar, and was convinced to join the rebellion. From his years of experiance hunting he became a decent marksman, so now being a gunner would be the next step up.
He tends to shout in tusken at oncoming starfighters, and has nicknamed ISDs Banthas, but no one goes along with it.
>>44668989
They are pretty cool, any good site/book to get more info about them?
>>44668967
Earliest mentions of the -95 place it as a swept wing fighter. Only in the TIE and X-wing games did it get its more familiar look.
>>44669040
While we're throwing things back to the old -95s, make the Y-wing gunner a former Trianni Ranger with a grudge against the Empire. Very much the revenge driven gunner, the particulars she won't talk about. Otherwise she's the clown of the group, and she and Kandai take up radio traffic making fun of Azira's dogmatic approach to a bunch of irregulars.
>>44669270
The Wook. I think they're first mentioned in Han Solo at Star's End.
>>44669266

Hull Upgrade, as some anon said before, works well with this because it gives you an extra Hull Point twice. Well, you still get killed if one hit is a Direct Hit crit, but otherwise it's twice as much hull durability out of it for the same value.
buddy's running an ffg game, and I was thinking of playing a droid- are they as good as other races? It looks like they get some neat stuff, but I'm slightly put off by the starting 1/all stats
>>44670396
If you want to be a droid, be a droid, stats be damned. Who cares what race is mechanically better or worse.
>>44670343
Also, he's PS7 with an EPT. Pretty decent place to be, can VI up to 9 or compete with Dash.
>>44670396
The Droid race is meant to be heavily specialised, thus why you get the high XP pool to start with. Droids are good for making masters of some element, and make poor jack of all trades. For that, Humans are better.
Droids are fucking boss, though.
Guys can you help me on a Chewy+Leebo list?
So is it better a HLC+Outrider Leebo with no EPT or a Predator+Mangler+Outrider Leebo? Is it better a more offensive build for both ships or a more defensive and synergetic one based around PTL? I mean:
Aggressive=Chewy+C3PO+MF+Predator+Gunner and Leebo+Mangler+Outrider+Predator
Defensive=Chewy+PTL+Jan Ors+C3PO+MF and Leebo+Recon Specialist+Outrider+Determination+Mangler
In this one Chewe is supposed to Focus+Evade while Leebo can just Focus and Jan can convert one token to an Evade for him so they end up both with an Evade and a Focus.
>>44670283
This ship has no canon upgrade, so why does it come with the tractor beam?
>>44669907
how much do they cost?
>>44669970
yeah but a random law enforcement droid with a stun baton and riot shield gets to be a rival in far horizons and commando droids don't? same with the generic security droid from etoe core. And those are just things of similar form and function, not to speak of the bucket-loads of other things that get to be rivals.
What kind of skill numbers could/would they have as rivals?
>>44670564
It has a title that equips it with a Tractor Beam regardless of cannon slot.
>>44670544
I'd run your aggressive Chewy build with your defensive Leebo build.

There is no lore to TFA, because there's no depth to the movie. None of the 'mysteries' have an answer either, JarJar just wrote them for a better writer to solve.
>>44668311
the empire was penny pinching, and had reserves to fly mass swarms, and also made the TIE pilots follow orders as they would be stranded if they did not.

>>44670877
Endless Odyssey is best anyway. 10/10 would sail under any day.
>>44670877
yep, was bored eating cold pizza and it got popped up by Netflix so said 'why not'. got some ideas for possible campaign if I ever get any of my various plans made out fully.
>>44670733
You don't understand. The 30 years of largely untouched time gives so much freedom for a campaign. You can work with both OT and PT stuff, and lead up to the way things work in TFA. Plenty of grappling points exist as well. You need to be creative, just like WEG had to a long time ago.
>>44670720
No idea how to run him in Armada but in XWM, there's a couple of builds that work well for me:
>Predator + Integrated Astro + Your astro of choice (I usually use the generic R2 to keep his cost down)
>PtL + BB-8 + Engine Upgrade
If you've mastered the art of flying the Su-27, Outmaneuver might be better than Predator, but otherwise, Predator gets the most consistent returns. Then throw in whichever wingmen you like. For fluff, I usually throw in some combination of Biggs, Luke, Tycho, Wes, or Hobbie, though flying him alongside Poe might also be worth a try.
Sometimes the perfect combo just happens.
How would you make Princess Leia? And which FFG game would you use?
I'm thinking AoR, but would like /swg/'s opinion.
